SUMMARY:An Author’s Perspective - Writing Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Alex Stone: Delving Deep into Character Emotions\n\nWhat makes 
 a reader feel a story rather than simply read it?\n\nIn this first sessi
 on of the An Author’s Perspective Workshop Series\, novelist Alex Ston
 e explores one of the most powerful tools in a writer’s craft: deep\, 
 emotionally driven characterisation.\n\nKnown for richly layered character
 s and emotionally immersive storytelling\, Alex will guide you through how
  to uncover your characters’ inner lives — their fears\, desires\, wou
 nds\, and backstories — and use those emotional truths to naturally driv
 e plot\, conflict\, and action on the page.\n\nThis is a practical\, writ
 er-focused session\, ideal for novelists and short story writers who want 
 to:\n\n 	Create characters that feel real\, complex\, and emotionally comp
 elling\n 	Move beyond surface-level emotion into authentic internal motiva
 tion\n 	Let character emotion guide decisions\, tension\, and narrative mo
 mentum\n 	Deepen backstory without info-dumping\n 	Strengthen emotional im
 pact without melodrama\n\nYou’ll leave with new tools\, fresh insight\,
  and practical exercises you can immediately apply to your own work.\n\n\
 n\n&nbsp\;\n\n&nbsp\;\n\n\n\nWhat to Expect\nHeld on the second Saturday 
 of each month (10:30am–12:30pm)\, these relaxed\, welcoming workshops fe
 ature guest speakers from across the publishing world — including author
 s\, editors\, and industry professionals — sharing honest insights into 
 their craft and careers.\n\n 	Tea or coffee on arrival ☕\n 	Time to chat
  and connect with fellow writers\n 	The workshop begins at 11:00am\, allo
 wing space to settle in\n 	A supportive\, discussion-friendly environment 
 — no pressure\, no judgement\n\nWhether you’re working on your first d
 raft or refining a manuscript\, this session is designed to help you writ
 e with greater emotional confidence and clarity.\n\n\n\nWho It’s For\n\n
  	Fiction writers at any stage\n 	Writers who feel their characters are 
 “flat” or emotionally distant\n 	Authors who want readers to connect m
 ore deeply with their stories\n 	Anyone curious about how emotion\, charac
 ter\, and story truly intertwine\n\nUpcoming Workshops &amp\; Guest Speake
